I'm not, I wont tell you again that it's not an issue of label in the hyopthetical. The sum of 2 and 2 is 5, 5 is not a label for 4. It is 5. The end...next time, I'll point and laugh.
Quote:Two things and two things can't actually be more than what two things and two things actually is, which is four, yes we can LABEL two things and two things as "5" but that's where you're making a use/mention error and equivocating. 2+2 can never =5 but we can redefine or label the answer to 2+2 as "5". But "2+2" now is called "5" doesn't mean 2+2=5.
In this universe, 2+2=5, because, for example, when you add two and two things together, another, 5th thing materializes..and their math reflects that. It doesn;t matter that this doesn;t happen in our universe...we're talking about a different universe, where different things happen, because of different rules.
